Quite some time back, a "lock smith" jimmied my door to unlock it. Ever since then, the key wont unlock the door - but the alarm will unlock the door. Also, you can unlock the car from the inside by pulling up the lock button.

Any ideas on fixing?

Does the key go into the lock and turn the cylinder? If so, the linkage at the cylinder probably got knocked off.

Good luck.

My passenger door is like that because of the same reason. The cable has a plastic clip on one end and Im pretty sure it broke.
